A good alternative to raisins are raisined cranberries. I'm not a big fan of raisins so the dried cranberries are extra good to me.
Here's my grandma's recipe. If ever there was a cookie that tasted like love, it's this one.
Hi Constance,
Thnx for sharing the recipe..I just finished making them and their wonderful!..I did a little addition to the recipe..I added some dried cranberries (Craisins) to the raisins..so I'll call them Craisin Oatmeal Cookies!
You're fortunate to have a ready and free supply on hand. Pecans are relatively expensive in the Northeast.
I love pecans I buy them shelled in bulk in Texas as they are cheaper there.I buy about 10 pounds.I hate to pay for those itty bitty packages of them in the stores a total rip off.I just found the receipt for the Walnut halves..$5.99 pound. Pecans usually run about the same at retail stores. Sometimes $6.99 depending on location etc. Pieces can sometimes run slightly less per pound.
